Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Main-thread work: 5.5 s
A phone's processor spends 5.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 3.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Osano CMP, website-files.com and ContentSquare and others), adding 7.6 MB and 1.9 s of main-thread time.
website-files.com adds 502 ms
502 mswebsite-files.com costs a phone 502 ms of main-thread work and 7.0 MB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Osano CMP adds 646 ms
646 msOsano CMP costs a phone 646 ms of main-thread work and 92 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
ContentSquare adds 294 ms
294 msContentSquare costs a phone 294 ms of main-thread work and 181 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
1 checks passed
Server response: 5 ms
5 msYour server sent the HTML in 5 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors

Images and page weight
Page weight: 8.0 MB in 76 requests
8.0 MBYour homepage downloads 8.0 MB in 76 requests on a phone: media 6.4 MB (15), scripts 1.0 MB (30) and fonts 267 KiB (5). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
About 2.3 g of CO₂ per visit
2.26 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.26 g of CO₂e: 271.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
5 tap targets too small
5 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
ARIA dialog and alertdialog nodes should have an accessible name (1 element)
ARIA dialog and alertdialog nodes should have an accessible name: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
6 links without text
6 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 27 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
46 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 49 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 3 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is short (13 characters)
Your title is only 13 characters: “ICONIQ | Home”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
1 link with vague text
1 link use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind it.
39 internal links, 8 external
The homepage links to 39 pages on iconiq.com and 8 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 90 characters
Your meta description is 90 characters: “ICONIQ is a global investment firm catalyzing opportunity through extraordinary community.”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “We are a global investment firm catalyzing opportunity through extraordinary community.”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.iconiq.com/.
Open Graph tags complete
Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.iconiq.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.
3 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (830 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes https://www.iconiq.com/llms.txt (6 KiB, 23 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
2 pages share a title
https://www.iconiq.com/growth/insights and https://www.iconiq.com/impact/insights all use the title “ICONIQ | Insights”. Search engines can't tell which page to show for a search, so each competes with the others.
4 pages without a meta description
https://www.iconiq.com/investment-management, https://www.iconiq.com/investment-management/investment-portfolios, https://www.iconiq.com/investment-management/family-advisory and https://www.iconiq.com/impact have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 link to non-canonical URLs
Your homepage links to 1 page by a URL that isn't its canonical one, for example https://www.iconiq.com/growth/insights/2026-state-of-scaling-the-great-sorting, whose canonical is https://www.iconiq.com/growth/reports/2026-state-of-scaling. Linking straight to the canonical URL saves crawlers a detour and keeps ranking signals on one address.
15 internal pages checked
We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 25 found) and read each the way a search engine does.
4 checks passed

Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen

No calls to action
We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
No direct contact details
No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.
No form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
No risk reducer
No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 530 words of visible text.
